2 Corinthians 5:1 (WEB) For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in the heavens.

Psalm 68:6 (WEB) God sets the lonely in families. He brings out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land. Promise #53: I put people who are lonely in families. God is a family man. His whole life is about family. In Ephesians 3:14-15 Paul the Apostle says… 14For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, (ESV). God understands that we were created to be in families, so in today’s promise, we read how God puts people who are lonely in families. I...
